The tabloid in question featured a suggestive headline and a manipulated image of Meghan on its cover, sparking widespread debate and speculation.
In a historic move, Prince Harry became the first British royal to testify in the witness box at the High Court in London as part of his lawsuit against Mirror Group Newspapers (MGN).
Alongside over 100 other individuals, he is suing MGN, the publisher of tabloids such as the Daily Mirror, the Sunday Mirror, and the Sunday People, alleging widespread illegal activities that took place between 1991 and 2011.
After completing his testimony, Prince Harry returned to the United States, only to find that a US tabloid had featured his wife on its cover with a sensational headline: "Meghan Bimbogate Explodes."
The article in question was published by Globe, a tabloid based in Boca Raton, Florida, known for its coverage of politics, celebrities, human interest stories, and crime, often indulging in sensationalist journalism. The cover also included what appeared to be an edited picture of Meghan.
This particular edition of the tabloid targeting Meghan was released on June 19. Critics of Meghan Markle seemed to relish the character assassination attempt against the Duchess of Sussex. While the magazine's edition was not available online, those opposed to Meghan were directed to visit zinio.com in order to obtain a copy of the publication.
With these events unfolding, royal observers pondered whether it was now time for Prince Harry to initiate legal action against the US media.
Supporters of Meghan firmly believed that the Duke of Sussex would file a lawsuit against the tabloid in question for its targeting of his wife. The situation continues to spark interest and speculation as to what actions Prince Harry may take to defend Meghan's reputation.
